Hi, Doctor said the outside of it looked bad but it showed healthy on the bloodwork which is confusing. I can see if i can get the blood results. Maybe i have badluck? She unfortunately couldn't wake up from the anesthesia and passed away. But the doctor had to do exploratory surgery due to...

Hi, my bearded dragon that i rescued in August of 2023 just had exploratory surgery yesterday. They did bloodwork before surgery and it came back all healthy even the liver showed to be fully functioning and healthy. The doctor found a cyst on her liver during the surgery and also said the liver...

Hi, i just got Puffs culture results back three days ago and it turns out she has a yeast infection inside her lungs along with the respiratory infection. The vet thinks the yeast infection couldve started from all the meds shes been taking. Shes on Ceftazidime (0.6 ML), Gentamicin & Saline mix...

Hi, last post was about the inside color of Puffs throat. Turns out the black color is normal and we also ran a fungal culture on her skin because her head looked yellowish. We got results yesterday and shes fungal FREE! Were so happy. Were still trying to beat this respiratory infection though...

Hi, im sorry for the late reply, its been stressful lately. Shes in a 20Gal right now, but i use an Arcadia T5 12% tub Kit for UVB lighting. The basking temp gets 90-103F and we use Thrive digital thermometer/hydrometer probes. Were moving her to an 85Gal hopefully tomorrow due to her being...

Hi, im sorry for the late reply, its been so stressful lately. Were now nebulizing her with gentamicin and saline mixed for thirty minutes to an hour along with the marbofloxacin. It turns out she has a severe case of YFD, we think at least (Some of her scales are dark grey and yellow). Thank...

Hi, this is an update on the bearded dragon i rescued a month ago. We decided to name her jiggly puff because her beard is big lol. She now weighs 542-550 grams and were still doing critical care but every other day. I still have to kind of force the food carefully into her mouth but she takes...

I would love that! Thank you

I tried getting some hornworms but they are sold out where im at. I will definitely give the greens slurry blend a try Thank you

Thank you!

Yes, just under the bulb but she hasn’t done it since i changed to 100W and i elevated her on a basking ramp

I know, i tried telling the previous owners about the colored lights but they didn’t really say much about it. Im glad i rescued her when i did because i don’t think she would’ve lasted any longer with them. This is what her enclosure looked like with the previous owners

We’ll try that, Were just scared that the water might get into her nose and cause aspiration or something like that. She doesn’t eat any of the food on her own. We have to kinda force it into her carefully

She was under the basking spot when doing the mouth opening thing and i think thats the only time she did it. Previous owners only had a red night heating bulb for her throughout the whole “few” months they had her. Maybe she wasn’t used to the hot temps at first. Thank you for flagging her and...
